Chronic Pain
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For individuals with invisible chronic illnesses, hiding your pain all the time becomes exhausting. With a chronic health issue, you don’t get to choose when you’re in pain and when you’re not, and as such, I keep my cancellation policy flexible so that I can best support you. There is often a great deal of shame surrounding chronic illness, and significant stigma as well, both from the medical community and society at large. This can lead to depression and anxiety, both medical anxiety and social anxiety. I want to work with you to ensure that your chronic illness does not completely shape your mental health. As someone who suffers from a chronic pain condition, I am understanding and aware of the unique challenges that diagnoses such as fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos, Dysautonomia, arthritis, and cancer have on an individual’s personal, romantic, and professional life. My goal is to help each patient understand and accept these diagnoses and work together to manage both the physical symptoms as well as the mental turmoil that can occur while trying to live life in an able-bodied world.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’ve been told it’s “just stress,” that “your labs look fine,” or that maybe it’s “all in your head.” But deep down, you know something’s not right. Living with chronic pain or illness—especially when it’s invisible to others—can feel both physically exhausting and emotionally isolating. Maybe you’re grieving the life you once had, constantly justifying your experience to people who don’t understand, or quietly wondering if you’re just supposed to push through. Dr. Jenny Shields offers something different: a space where you don’t have to prove your pain to be taken seriously.
With warmth, respect, and clinical expertise, Dr. Shields works with people navigating the complex realities of illness—whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis, are stuck in a cycle of uncertainty, or have been managing symptoms for years. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based tools, and trauma-informed care, she helps you move through grief, frustration, and fear with compassion. Together, you’ll explore how to live a meaningful life in a body that doesn’t always cooperate—on your own terms.

Ellie Mental Health-Hales Corners
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-IT
Chronic pain and illness can be incredibly frustrating and debilitating. Through my approach we work on creating a healthy mind-body link to help treat the persistent pain you are experiencing. We also work together to shift the body out of fight or flight mode to help regulate the nervous system. It is essential in my work that you feel validated in your experiences and discover the power and strength you and your body hold.
